Chapter 7, Problem 7C.7BE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The differential, the integral and the value of 〈px〉 for the normalized wavefunction (2/L)1/2sin(πx/L) has to be evaluated.

Concept Introduction:

The wave function represents the exact position of the electron in an atom.  The wave function is represented by ψ in the quantum mechanics.  Expectation value of the momentum is known as the average value of the momentum for a particular wave function.
